About Fondo Proceso 

Beginning in 2010 as the grant-making function of CASEP, Fondo Proceso supports women's associations in Central America which:

• Provide opportunities to women to learn new skills and develop their leadership capabilities within their communities and beyond, leading to gender equality.

• Provide long-term follow-up and organization that fosters the creation of diverse community projects led by women.
  

• Develop solar cooking technology that is consistent with the needs of women and families now cooking with firewood or natural gas, promoting health and preserving the natural environment.

• Encourage self-sufficiency and long-term sustainability of autonomous community groups in Central America.
